Saturday's Critters

We do have curious deer. They were quite intent upon the grassy knoll!

First up was Butch raccoon. In the background you can see the solar powered light atop the water fountain. A beacon in the dark!

We still have mice friends under the feeder! I simply park the camera on the cement slab outside the door. It works pretty well.

Our three crows are still around, although I did witness a bit of a fight in the air. They aren't silent! They were just above the driveway and one was definitely an intruder. They have such an interesting variety of calls.

For more critters: visit Eileen's Critter party #433. She's gone on some marvellous walks, and snaps many birds!

I enjoy seeing your critters, large and small! Glad the snow has melted, as I'm sure the deer also are!

Hello Jenn, :=) I can't remember when I last saw a Crow,..they are smart birds. Your first image with the deer is beautiful, and the cute mouse, and Butch, on their night time prowl.
Have a good weekend. :=)

I enjoyed the videos, especially the deer and the crows.

They all travel through, the deer were not too spooked, and all the others seem to have a purpose.Looks like most of your snow has gone, I wonder if you will get a late fall, we sometimes get a very late hard frost down here.

I love watching the deer too. They are such beautiful animals and a treat to see here in Florida. Enjoy your weekend!

When I use my camera to catch pictures of night visitors, mice or woodrats, they tend to get washed out from too much brightness. Daylight pictures come out perfectly clear in colour. - Margy
